Note that this is the same day as our Young Eagles event.

It’s cool and clear and the Annual Sutter Buttes Regional Rag Wing RoundUp at O52 is just around the corner.

They want to invite you, and your amazing gravity defeating aircraft if you have one, to join them on Saturday Oct 6, 2018 for their annual get together between 9 am to 2 pm. It’s a great time to bring pilots and planes together, have some good food with some good tunes and support aviation in our small communities.

If you plan on attending they would appreciate if you could respond letting them know you will be joining them and if you have a rag wing, low wing, rocket ship, kite, SR71 or parachute, that you will be bringing with you to show off.

There’s even a website for the event!

Topic: VMC & IMC topics are taken from real life events and discussed to aid the decision making process for pilots.
